What Are We Making Monday? Crab Pasta Salad

What are we making Monday? This week I’ve chosen Crab Pasta Salad. I don’t even know why I love this so much, but I can’t stop eating it! It’s a wonderful twist on a classic macaroni or pasta salad.

Great for potlucks, company, or a delicious family meal. I remember as a kid they had imitation crab available at the salad bar at Pizza Hut. I loved that stuff! So not only is this delicious, it’s also a bit nostalgic for me.
